The Homesteader Hop #46

Welcome to The Homesteader Hop! Each week we have plenty of posts to keep your attention starting every Wednesday at 1 AM EST.

We’ve added something new to the Hop!

If you are featured, your post will be added to our group board, The Homesteader Hop Group Board, and you will be invited to pin with us! Make sure to follow the board (sometimes it’s hard finding you to invite)!

We’re still getting back into the swing of things around here! A lot piled up after our vacation and having some maintenance done on the site.

One of the things that I love about writing A Chick And Her Garden, is that I can use it as a journal and go back and reflect on my experiences and thoughts of the past.

With all of the work piling up, my previous post, When My Simple Life Isn’t So Simple was just what I needed to help me get back to work! It reminds me that, even in the tough times, this is all worth it and I love what I do!

Hi All! In 2013 my husband and I purchased our home and have been transforming it into our dream homestead. Follow along at A Chick And Her Garden and see how our little slice of heaven grows. I’ll be sharing our experiences, animals, crafts, recipes and more!

I’m Anna – foodie, research-addict, and mini-homesteader. I’m married to a man who can learn to do anything from a book (sailing! changing shocks & struts! making perfect cheesecake!). And I’m also Mama to one delightful little lady, who keeps me on my toes!

I’m Jess, a Christian wife & mama of 3 sweet kiddos living a simple life in the great state of Tennessee. My husband & I raise goats, honeybees, chickens, & horses on our 6 acre homestead. I love to share with you about frugal living & self-sustainability through homesteading, homemaking, and homeschooling!

How Do I Join?

If you’re new to blogging OR just new to Blog Hops, here’s what you do:

The post that you want to submit to the Blog Hop needs to have a link back to the Blog Hop. For example you might say in your post…”This post was shared on The Homesteader Hop”, or “I participated in the Homesteader Hop” and this would generally go at the end of your post.

You could also simply grab the button by copying and pasting the code below.
